The dems were much further left in the 40s. Guaranteed income for old people, price controls, minimum wage laws were created for the first time. The government directly hired people to do work via the wpa. It got them control of the house for almost 50 years, and a president who had four terms.
I guess here on Bluesky it's controversial to note that the Democrats, once the majority across this country, were reduced to national minority (in stages, from 1968, to 1980, to 2016) by moving left. But if you'd rather think I'm just making Trump's point...well, whatever helps you cope.

Newsom's willingness to troll Trump has moved him up from 105th to 104th on my list of candidates I'd consider voting for in the 2028 democratic presidential primary.
New in PN: Gavin Newsom's moment "Newsom and other Dems joining this battle are right to fight. And by fighting, they are demonstrating just how weak Trump is. When you bend the knee, MAGA looks invincible. As soon as you stand up, though, the orange god starts to look like a fetid bag of wind."

After we have endured and resisted the worst, we'll have the chance to build back better. The more utopian our plans, the brighter they might shine from the tunnel's end—and hence the greater their appeal. Yes, we have to defeat "now" first, but what are your best ideas for tomorrow's clean slate?
